Molecular Weight:
245.21
Purity:
98% by TLC, NMR (Conforms)
Form:
White solid
CAS Number:
[10356-76-0]
Formula:
C9H12FN3O4
Application Notes:
A DNA methyltransferase inhibitor currently in clinical trials for breast cancer and other solid tumors1. Like 5-Azacytidine and decitabine, 2-Deoxy-5-fluorocytidine is a pyrimidine analog that integrates into chromatin to inhibit DNA methylation2. It blocks proliferation in colon cancer-derived HCT116 cells by activating DNA response pathways3. It inhibits various strains of pathogenic avian influenza viruses in vitro and in vivo4.
